Life Drawing

Life drawing sessions on Saturday are the best, I get my art done early in the day and I don’t have to worry about traffic when driving to the studio.

I’m getting much too detailed with my life drawing gestures, I need to focus more on the whole pose and the entire gesture.

Whenever I draw the face it takes me much too long. I end up not finishing most of the figure because the face takes me so long to draw.

I was happy with this drawing, but the pose was very simple so I should expect a good outcome.

Here again, I focused a bit on the head, and ended up spending way too much time on it. I really need to practice faster head drawings weekly.

This costumed pose was interesting, but like most of the costume poses I focus on the portrait rather than drawing the clothes.

This drawing was purely focused on accuracy and getting the entire body somewhat rendered. Maybe I should attend the life drawing long pose session on Tuesdays at hipbone, this way I can focus on a longer drawing and see what I can come up with.
